Everything always tastes so much better when fresh picked. I really need to plant more citrus trees. I have the simi dwarf trees and they do produce (tangelos and grapefruit), but not quite enough for me to have a lot extra.

I had planned on having strawberries with my breakfast this morning, but the birds got to them before I did. I may have to actually cover them this year.

Sitting here, twiddling thumbs, waiting on others. Not what one would wish, when you're a contractor paid by the hour and your clock can't start until they do their job. Though, of course, THEY get a paycheck regardless.

Good morning, everyone. It's looks as if it's going to be a very, very good new day! There is East India Company's "Royal Breakfast" tea in my mug, some miso soup and tsukemono beside it, and the scale gave me the good news that I now weigh 76kg. One more to go and I've reached my goal. These daily 10k walks and low calorie foods have done the trick once again.
